Paris Letter in London Truth.
The Gear was here incognito last winter.
He had with him IN aid-de-camp, a secre-

gent orders that his incogniCo was to be
respected by his suite, the gentlemen fell
back upon the mastiff as an objective for
the reverence which they were in the habit
of lavishing on the master. The aid-de-
camp of the late Gar astonished the French
Generals, when that ill-starred sovereign
was lodged at the Elysee, by kissing his
arm from the wrist up to the shoulder
whenever he said anything to them which
was kind or gracious. Alexander III. does
not suffer such close contact and, as old
habits cannot be rooted out in day, the
courtiers paid to the dog the homage they
used to render to its master. The Gar

tells me that Alexander was just like a
freshly emancipated school boy so overjoyed
was he at being freed from the dread of dy

feelings in gleeful manifestations and boyish
practical jokes The dog shared his Joy,

MAINE REFORM SCHOOL.
The Question of DenominationalIn al n struc-
tiOn.

PORTLAND, Aug. 10.
II 10 stated that prominent Catholics com
plain because there is no representative of
their faith among the trustees of the reform
school, Col. O'Donoghue's successor not be-
ing Catholic.
1t is said that among leading Catholics
there is now disposition to renew the con-
test they have waged for so many years.
SO long ago as VIM +. Gould was a trus
tee Of the school, the trustees were petitioned
to allow Catholic Sunday school teachers tc
instruct the Catholic boys in the fundamen'
tai truths of their religion. This request, il
is alleged, the trustees refused to grant.
Mr.. T. F, Donahue, while a trustee from
1879 to 1888, tried very hard to make ar
raugements whert by Catholic boys could be
instructed in the faith of that church, anC
mass was said in school every Sunday foI
the greater part Of the four years of his off
cal term. But separate Sunday school clas
SIS were not allowed.
Col. O'Donoghue his successor in office
asked for separate classes for Catholic boy'
in the Sunday school. In 1883 he made
very long minority report on the subject
which report was submitted to the State VITA
the report Of the trustees.
Shortly before this report was made poblc
the Right Rev. Bishop Healy severed hi
connection with the Sunday school, and re
called the priest who had minster,d to thc
boys. Since then no Catholic service has

Catholics say that at the present time Cath
olic boys are not only deprived of the teach
ings and sacraments of the Catholic church
but are obliged to attend Protestant services
o. Sunday, and in Sunday school are taugh
from Protestant books, and study the KIM
James or other version of the scriptures no
authorized by the cauons of the Catholic

The Irish National League Proclaimed
by the British Government.
LONDON, Aug. Is

LONDON, Aug. 10.
In the House of Lords. Friday afternoon,
Lord Salisbury announced that the govern
ment had proclaimed the Irish National
League.
Balfour, chief secretary for Ireland, an
nounced in the House OF Commons this af.
ternoon that the government had proclaimed
the Irish National League, He said the
league was proclaimed as dangerous asso-
cistion under section six of the Irish crimes
act amendment bill recently made a law.
Cheers and counter cheers. The govern
ment had thus taken the power conferred by
the statute to prohibit and suppress the Irish
National League.
Chamberlain and t. w. Russell have
withdrawn from the unionist party in conse
quence of the proclaiming of the Irish Ma
tionsl League.
The proclaiming was subject TO au excited
discussion in the lobbies of Parliament this
evening.
The Gladstonians assert that the govern
ment is unjust and impudent
The Psrnellites say that the government
wish to create trouble and outrage in Ireland
during the winter, that the proclamation will
force the extremist measures of the league,
and that the government will shortly bitterly
repent its action.
| The Pail Mall Gazette this afternoon very
vigorously attacks the government party for
adopting in the House of Commons last eve
ming the Eearl of Cadogan's amendment to
| the Irish land bill relating to town parks.
| To emphasize their Indignation number
of the liberal members OF Commons decided
to join the league.
Many Irish papers appeared with black
| borders this evening.
The announcement of the proclamation
was received quietly in Ireland.
At Limerick 26 new members Joined the
league.
Parnell said that the action of the govern
ment in proclaiming the league was gratu-
tous insult to the Irish considering the pres
ent condition of Ireland. II was merely a
move to cover the weakness of the land bill
If the bill did not protect the tenants from
eviction trouble was inevitable during the
coming winter.
| The House of Lords this evening adopted
| the Irish land bill as received from the House
of Commons.
Parneli, Dillon, OBrien, Harrington and
other uationalist3 started for Dublin this eve
ming. Some will return to assist in debate
Thursday. when Gladstone will move to ad-
dress the crown, denouncing the proclams-
ton of the league.
| Most of the liberals welcome the action of
the government on the ground that it will
tend to hasten the Gladstonian reaction.

THE UTE OUTBREAK.
Matt Coach Escorted by a Strong Guard
Dug up the fiatchet.

RAwLEY. Wyo., Aug. 10.
The mail coach that arrived late last night
was escorted out one hundred and fifty miles
from Meeker by heavy guard. Late ad-
vices from that point state that the town is
being guarded night and day by a force Of
armed men. conference was held with the
Indians Tuesday morning but nothing def
mite determined.
Business men and large property holders
declare there is no Indian war.
The militia were expected to arrive at
Meeker this morning rney will perhaps
try to drive the Indians from the State, when
the war will begin in earnest.
Everything points to the fact that Colorow
having dug up the hatchet, the Utes must
now and forever be driven out.
Three companies of cavalry would be suffi-
cient for us to take all the Indians out of the
State. If the fight is forced, the settlements
on Bear and Snake rivers will no doubt be
destroyed and many people killed, as the
State militia and the few volunteers will be
no match for the Indians.
Everything in Northwest Colorado is all
excitement People are leaving their homes
and crops for places of safety, while the In
daus are receiving reintorcements from Uni
tan and other agencies.
The outlook is anything but pleasant.

OF the galley. Capt. Clark slept in the cabin
and heard nothing until the steward gave the

The suppostion is that after smoking
pipe in the bunk they set fire to the bedding
Both died from suffocstion. Mooney was
somewhat burned on the upper part of his
body. The authorities decided an inquest
unnecessary.

THE PLATFORM
OF the Union Labor Party-Ii is Adopted
Without Division.

SYRACUSE, n. Y, Aug 10.
The platform adopted by the union labor
party on Friday, is identical with that adopt
ed BY the convention of trade and labor as
| socistions, whice nominated Henry George
for mayor of New York.
What we propose is not disturbing any
man in the holdings in title but by abolishing
all taxes on industry or its products and
leave to the producer the full fruits of his
exertion and the taxation of land values ex-
elusive of improvements; to devote TO com.
mon use the values which arising not from
the exertion of an individual but from the
growth of society and belong justly to the
community as a whole. This increased tax
alton of land, not according to area but
according to value, must, while relieving the
working farmer and small homestead owner
OF the undue burden now imposed upon him,
make II Improbable to hold land for specu.
latlon and thus throw open abundant oppor
tunltes for the employment of labor and the
building of houses. We would have the gem
ersl government issue all money without the
Intervention of banks. We would add the
postal telegraph system and postal savings
bank to the postal service. We would as
sumo the public control and ownership of
these iron roads which become highways of
modern commerce. We desire to simplify
the procedure of courts, diminish expenses
of legal procee iings so that the poor be
| placed on equality with the rich and the long
delays that now result in the miscarriages of
justice be prevented.
! The morning session was wholly devoted
| to the platform.
George reported the platform which was
adopted without division.
Resolutions were adopted fsvoring the CO
operation with other labor organ cations
throughout the country in calling a national
conference to form national party; tavoring
protection for State canals; condemning
Congress tor not passing the S-hour labor
! law for letter carriers favorng the law ex-
tending the time of which children should
attesd school from IA to l6; asking for free
public Libraries; denouncing the press mo.
nopoly of New York city; demanding secrecy
of ballots; opposing the employment OF
posses of armed men by private corporations
or individuals in a State; opposing class
! legislation; opposing the use of public money
for any but public schools or private chart
ties; favoring woman suffrage; expressing
sympathy for the irish.

THE BOUNDARY QUESTION
Brings the President of Venezuela on 9
Visit to the United states.
New YORK, Aug. 10.

New YORK, Aug. 10.
President Blanco of Venezuela, who 10
visiting the United States for the purpose of
endeavoring to adjust the boundary question
with Great Britain, in reference to the en-
croschment of that power upon Venezuela
territory, says the subject is one of the great
est interest to both Venezuela and the United
States. II am astonished beyond measure,
that American papers have failed to take
notice of the act of Great Britain in her
usurpation of Venezuela and of the territory
south of the Orinoco river.
The English are acquiring possession of
the division of the Amazon and of Orinoco
and have actually taken possession Of the
territory bounding the Orinoco at its mouth
an act which Venezuela cannot allow. Ia
consequence it has suspended its relations
with England and appealed to the United
States to act as arbitrator in the affair. En-
glish government has denied the right of the
United States to act in this capacity. Ven
ezuela now proposes TO send sufficient army
to drive English usurpers from her territory.
As result il is hoped that the United States
Government will interiene to terminate the
question.
